I agree, Vern. The two that hit me used exactly the same text on a couple of my oldest stories.

I think we have another review spammer, Lunapriv.

Yes, I've been suspending Luna accounts off and on for a few days. I imagine Bill has too.
Persistent, I must say.

I've had two reviews from her a week or so apart, obviously a spammer from the content. Both times I checked her account and it was closed. The closed account doesn't seem to stop her. Not sure how she returns with the same name. Anyway, keep up the good work. Thanks. Take care. Vern

Re: Spammer has joined - Please delete them
I've been wondering, like you, Vern, how they can keep spamming after being removed. The only way I can see is that when they apply for a given name, the name-checker doesn't "see" that the name has been used (since being removed). If this is a case, the name check may have to be altered to take in past names (back as far as, perhaps, a month).

Maybr keep a permanent list of spammist names? Purge them after several years, or after a new user IDs himself and pays ?

Just got my third one and in each case her (Luna) account is closed. Something isn't working. Take care. Vern

What bugs me more than having a spammer is being kicked off the system every time I remove one.
